Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[COW #3 Logo]

Nice and colorful

I have watched "The Nightmare Before Christmas" but don't seem to remember this character from it. That movie had so many abstract looking guys I wouldn't be surprised if I forgot. This creature almost looks like a Christmas tree with how the ornaments are hanging off of it. Oh, I'm sorry, I guess I should call it by his gender, if this even is a "he"? I like how the image is transferred so well on the site's background. I just now noticed how his brain is sticking out.

I also just now noticed the mistle above his horns. I sure wouldn't want to kiss this ugly dude. It's especially great to see how this character looks so cartoonish yet is also quite disgusting. I don't want to bash this guy, I think the fact that he's so ugly is probably part of how great he is. I think it's funny how the initials of this contest is "COW".

[Johnny Test]

I remember this

Yeah, I have never been a fan of Johnny Test. This is of course a great picture not only because of what it is, but because it's simply a fantastic piece of art. I have grown to recognize your perverted style. It's rather creepy to imagine that this is actually a boy. I have heard that JT is actually a really dumb show and this was probably the best thing they ever had on it. It's always cool to see canon examples of Rule 63. Even the backgrounds are pretty nicely detailed.

Thongs like that are always a great way of showing how sexual something can look. It's just a picture with a wonderful amount of brightness. You want to see people influenced by how clear the artwork is in this. It's so good it can even appeal to people who aren't that interested in stuff like this, if you know what I mean. Dang, that's a stiff nipple.

[Optimus Prime]

So beautiful!

Dude, you might as well call me a Transformers fan, because I have seen so much fantastic Transformers art work here! Optimus Prime has never looked scarier. He doesn't even look like a robot in this, he looks more like some decaying robot zombie. Given how crazy we are, an idea like that could in fact happen. There is an unbelievable amount of detail put into all of his cybernatics. He's actually so frightening it looks like he could be merged with Megatron.

I'm guessing not, because he seems to be holding Megatron's head. I hope this won the contest as well as every other kind of contest imaginable because this is awesome! It is something that everyone can appreciate who likes anything! Even people who aren't art fans should love this. It looks like he has a laser or something firing from his chest. It's even great fun to try to make out what kind of weird background he's in.

[Rob-Urbs]

I know you!

In addition to being the most prolific artist on this website, I think you might even be the most prolific creator of art submissions. It's great to see something from you that isn't porn related. You have done all robots a favor by making this great piece. I think the best part is probably how the water is electricuting the robot dog. Why would you even have robots with access to water anyway? Whatever the reason is, it's a nicely done picture.

I love how there's so much going on in this scene. You see pretty much every typical member of a robot family. Granted, I wouldn't know much about a typical robot family, but I imagine it would probably resemble a human family. There's just so much detail put into all of the parts of the robot's bodies. Their houses look the same as humans.

Peg?

In case you people can't make it out for yourselves, it appears to be saying, "Prototype Geometry". While the girl isn't that attractive, it's still great to see because of how gorgeous these colors are. Thse are really the kinds of works that show you what you can do with paint. It's almost like an abstract art piece with all these weird shapes floating around. I don't know what's going on, but it's wonderfully done. All of the body parts are drawn very strongly as well.

Even every part of the girl seems to be done with a different color. It looks like she's trying to press a button or something with whatever she's sitting on. I thought maybe the name would represent the word "pig". This girl represented anything but that! Every single object seems to have its own color that blends in wonderfully all together.

[Bonnie Nouveau]

What comic?

I don't know what comic this is about, but it certainly looks really good. It's great because this woman looks like she has such a cartoonish face with a more realistic body. You don't try to be overly sexual with this by having her nipples be erect or anything. I often wonder how they manage to be that erect in the first place. I like how it looks like there are dozens of eyes looking at her. At least I think that's what it's supposed to be.

The body proportions are done wonderfully in this too. The hands are very well defined through the gloves. I imagine this character is supposed to be a pirate simply because she is carrying a sword that looks like it would belong to pirates. I hope to see more great works like this. It could have used a background, but it doesn't need one.

[Hank]

That's frightening

My gosh, it's impossible to not portray this character in such an awesome light! This is one of the most original I have ever seen, because of how different it is. I think my favorite part is how he is depicted shooting the henchmen. The way the blood just seems to ooze out of his gun is wonderfully done. It's great to see how well he can look with such a vastly different design. You guys should seriously work on original flashes with this artwork.

Of course, it must have taken hours to make a single picture, so it would probably take years to make a full submission. Hey, I'm sure it could be done! I like how his shoelaces make him look so awesome. Who knew that shoelaces could make a character look so cool? I guess with all the blood and destruction around him, it's hard to imagine him as not good looking. I've only now realized that it's his crab arm Hank is using.

[The Silent Ones]

Another one!

I probably didn't like this as much as most people because I had seen this character before. Then again, I guess it could just be a similar design. It's great to see how well this character looks as he's going through this strange background. Frosty places are the perfect way to show how characters move around their environment. It seems like there's little bits of smoke coming from his body. I can't really tell if it's smoke or part of the landscape.

I love the sense that he's in this vast world. I can see the monks in the foreground, so I understand your author's comments. I like how the eyes look so ominous and they really contrast well with the dark design of the robotic monster. It almost looks like it could be a pokemon. Or maybe I've just seen too many art pieces with pokemon.

["In the final hour...]

It's wonderful

I hope you managed to get some kind of award for this wonderful art piece. It's just great to see how gorgeous everything looks. I like how there's these little words going on all around. You see the "Cannot Be Stopped" text appearing around Jebus. Is Jebus the character's official name? I heard that he's simply called Jesus, but apparently Jebus is a popular fan nickname. I can make out the words "Rot in Hell" and "Die Suffer" in the background.

I like how you show the auditor (I think that's his name) so well. You get a great sense that these characters are all intertwined to each other in every sense of the word. The shading and color effects used are fantastic. I also love how it seems to be taking place as the characters are floating through the air or something. It's amazing how it's even better than the original material. I guess with a single image you can do that.

[Engine]

Different, but good

It's quite interesting to see the result of something that took literally 200 hours. Dude, when do you sleep, seriously? This didn't present a character, it just presented numerous circuits and how they fit into a system. I don't know much about motors, but I would imagine this is a fairly realistic representation. Of course, if you just made it up for a fictional car, that works fine too. It's great to see how well the shadings are on each part.

It shows you how a car motor is like a clock. I know this has been done to death, but clocks show us how each little part matters. This is easily the most detailed depiction of a car motor or any other kind of motor I have seen. It seems futuristic, if only because it's so well detailed. I notice how there's a single red wire/circuit in the lower left hand corner.
